California is not a great example, since they pay out to the Fed so much more than they receive, so that infusion isn't really an infusion when you consider the overall budgets.

Nit: "the Fed" means the Federal Reserve Bank, which does not collect taxes. "The US treasury", "the Federal government" or "Fedgov" would work in your sentence.

  • It was supposed to be "the feds", short for "the federal government", but missing the s led to autocorrect on my phone correcting it to "the Fed". I can't edit it now, luckily I think the message is still pretty clear.
